Ready to explore one of the most discussed scenarios in the prepping community? This week’s episode tackles EMP survival with a balanced perspective that every prepper needs to hear.

From the first 24 hours of confusion to the long-term community survival strategies needed for true resilience, this episode will shift your thinking about what really matters in preparedness.
